Anyone know of any useful resources for setting taxes on transaction line items via suitescript? The combo of tax codes/tax groups + salestaxitems is proving impossible to navigate/search. Thanks!

i personally say dont do it yourself
learn to live with native netsuite taxes, or use one of the many tax overriding bundles
you may also be interested in suitetax or #CHS1YMVA9

Thanks i'll look into those options! This is being set via a restlet where we send a country name and a rate that's been calculated externally due to a number of factors so it's tough to replicate in netsuite (especially since we need everything to stay in sync) but figuring this out in netsuite makes no sense.

there are different configurations for different countries
what country is setup in your netsuite account
for the US, tax codes represent the tax rate paid to a region like a city, county or state
tax groups combine multiple tax codes together so you can select one tax group to calculate a tax rate for the combined city/county/state/other

Sorry for the delayed response. We have many countries set up so use a combination of tax group (US) and tax codes (all other countries). I can build a search for the non-US tax codes as salestaxitems but thing seem to break down for US sales/purchase orders
